💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

No responses

What was the most interesting question?

Lots of ethical questions from my first interviewer. He presented different scenarios and was curious as to my opinion on them. They were not the far-fetched scenarios commonly given (like, patient's religion forbids blood transfusion, patient will die if doesn't get it, what to do?), but more realistic in nature.

What are your general comments?

Overall, I got the best gut feeling from this school. Sure, they dont' produce academic physicians, but you got a good education from a well-respected institution. The friendliness of both my interviewers, the students I met, and the admissions staff really meant a lot in how I viewed the school. Had it not been for personal matters, I might well have gone here.
